  1. A tip to anyone that is going to do this origami project would be to fold your squares as you go. So, for example, cutting out 5 squares then folding them, then cutting more then folding those. Doing this can shorten the time it takes you to the project over all.

  4. I liked how the flowers in mine were differnt sizes, the little white ones were so cute. I liked not putin then in a ball because they looked more flower like that way. A tip id hav for every one starting out is cut your sqaures carfully cause the more squarish they are the better you petal will look.

  5. Question 1
    I wish i knew what the best paper would be to use. A lot of times the paper would not stick. I used twenty paper clips to hold the paper paper together.

  6. I am happy with the way mine turned out. I used maps and the flowers each had slightly different variation of the colors used.

  7. I wish I knew how long this project would take before I started it, then I could have managed my time better. I'd say that you should cut out squares 5 at a time because then you don't have to cut individually. Even though it was hard to catch on, I really liked my project because it looked well crafted.

  8. I wish I knew how long this project would take before I started, so I could manage my time better. A tip I would have is cut multiple squares at a time so you don't have to cut them individually. I like how my project turned out because it looked well crafted and it's a good idea for a gift.

  13. I would tell I wish I had known that it doesn't work to use stiff paper. I did and it would not stay glued.

  16. 2. What is one tip you would give to someone starting this project?
    I would tell them to cut out all the paper they will need first so they dont have to keep doing it. It would also be helpful to let them know that glue sticks suck to use so they should use the hot glue gun to make it easier.

  17. 2. One tip I would give someone is to cut out more than one square at a time and to make sure you work on it everyday. It took a long time to finish it because of how I managed my time.

  18. 2. I would tell someone who i starting this project to be careful and make sure the paper they cut out is all the same length and to hold the glue a long time so it stays.
